Shine
Years & YearsCHAP Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I remember us alone
Waiting for the light to go
Don't you feel that hunger
I've got, so many secrets to show
When I saw you on that stage
I shiver with the look you gave
Don't you hear that rhythm, can you
Show me how we can escape

(Ooh oh oh oh, ooh oh oh ooh)
I was biting my tongue
I was trying to hide
(Ooh oh oh oh, ooh oh oh ooh)
I'll forget what I've done
I'll be redefined

It's shaking the sky
And I'm following lightning
I'll recover if you keep me alive
Don't leave me behind
Can you see me I'm shining
And it's you that I've been waiting to find
I'm holding it all tonight
I'm folding it all tonight
You know that you make it shine
And it's you that I've been waiting to find
I'm holding it all tonight
I'm folding it all tonight
You know that you make it shine
It's you that I've been waiting to find

Now that we can hear that sound
Now that you can hold me down
You can pull me under
You can raise everything to the ground
Everything I can arrange,
Every part of me you change
Just hold me together, tell me
You'll always want me to stay

(Ooh oh oh oh, oh oh oh ooh)
I was biting my tongue
I was trying to hide
(Ooh oh oh oh, oh oh oh ooh)
I'll forget what I've done
I'll be redefined

It's shaking the sky
And I'm following lightning
I'll recover if you keep me alive
Don't leave me behind
Can you see me I'm shining
And it's you that I've been waiting to find

I wanna be the one you steal
I wanna be the one you shield
I wanna be the one
That your love, that your love
Can heal
I wanna be the one you steal
I wanna be the one you shield
I wanna be the one
That you'll love, that you'll love

It's shaking the sky
And I'm following lightning
I'll recover if you keep me alive
Don't leave me behind
Can you see me I'm shining
And it's you that I've been waiting to find
I'm holding it all tonight
I'm folding it all tonight

You know that you make it shine
It's you that I've be waiting to find
I'm holding it all tonight
I'm folding it all tonight
You know that you make it shine
It's you that I've be waiting to find




It's you that I've be waiting to find
It's you that I've been waiting to find

Line by Line Meaning

I remember us alone
I recall being together by ourselves


Waiting for the light to go
Anticipating the darkness to come


Don't you feel that hunger
Do you not sense that desire


I've got, so many secrets to show
I have lots of mysteries to reveal


When I saw you on that stage
Upon witnessing you perform


I shiver with the look you gave
I tremble from the expression you displayed


Don't you hear that rhythm, can you
Do you not perceive that beat, are you able to


Show me how we can escape
Demonstrate to me the way we can get away


(Ooh oh oh oh, ooh oh oh ooh)
Vocalization


I was biting my tongue
I was holding back what I really wanted to say


I was trying to hide
I was attempting to conceal


I'll forget what I've done
I will put behind me the things I have accomplished


I'll be redefined
I will be transformed


It's shaking the sky
The earth is quaking so heavily


And I'm following lightning
And I am chasing the electricity


I'll recover if you keep me alive
I will recuperate if you sustain me


Don't leave me behind
Do not abandon me


Can you see me I'm shining
Are you able to perceive me glowing


And it's you that I've been waiting to find
It's you who I have been searching to discover


I'm holding it all tonight
I am holding everything together this evening


I'm folding it all tonight
I am putting everything away this evening


You know that you make it shine
You are aware that you cause it to sparkle


I wanna be the one you steal
I desire to be the person you take


I wanna be the one you shield
I wish to be the one you protect


That your love, that your love
That which you love, that which you love


Can heal
Can cure


It's you that I've be waiting to find
It's you who I have been searching to discover

I could see Irene being important in this in this arc if ignia’s plan is to revive dead dragons

Happy the assassin

This battle could literally go across the entire continent maybe even other dimensions.

AttosShadow

To me if the earth dragon used the hearth to perform milk way to summon the souls of dead dragons and use his earth power to transfer the souls to some dragon eggs or something like that.
We know most of the alive dragons are dead but it’s never mention at least that I can recall what happened to eggs of dragons the one who haven’t been born yet.
Something like the eragon book series where the king has a tone of eggs to draw power from but they are in a dormant stat.

Something like that once the souls are infused into the eggs the hearth won’t be need anymore and the age of the dragons could actually began

AnimeWestReacts

i dunno what to think honestly kinda feeling like Selene will get delt a serious injury by Ignia and then get defeated by the guilds or Selene and Ignia are going to fight to the death since I don't see the point of having her escape again since Diablos is working for her more out of fear from what i remember so i feel if she gets heavily weakened by Ignia they should be able to take her down

Peter Campbell

@Kaneki Ken hopefully mashima doesn’t ruin her

Peter Campbell

@Kaneki Ken honestly first I would say Irene was but Selene is ruling the manga of off late

Kaneki Ken

@Peter Campbell yeah Selene's character is so good to the point where she gets the attention of the fans and ngl she's currently the best well written female villain of mashima

Peter Campbell

She’s probably gonna be around for a while cause in the character voting thing she came third and hiro will probably keep her around cause people live her character and her goals fall in like with the protagonist goal in some ways so she might be off help when ignia’s plan takes action

MyNameIs Jeff

Ignia affecting the sun when serious 🤞. Let's get it

ibrahim

when will it come out? and can someone tell me where i can read this manga?
